    Obama had given them every opportunity to safe their faces and come out as winners .
    Despite that, they contempted him,higher ranking officials/college professors etc.,often called him in public by the N-word .the week he was about to leave office,they held a military parade to remind their fans of how they humiliated their enemy on ( the 5 navy soldiers captured) 1st anniversary. On the contrary,if Trump smacked them,they will play the note of " unfairness, we're just misunderstood.."but they will pay respect.

    I thought it wasn't a ban???

    President Trump:

    Because the ban was lifted by a judge, many very bad and dangerous people may be pouring into our country. A terrible decision

    The poster before talked about how reaction to this was what was driving terrorist usage of the event. Is the solution then pretty simply stop over reacting to it? If not...why not?

    Which "poster before?" If you are referring to the poster that posted an article that concluded that the very action that Trump took (immigration ban) would drive terrorist activity, then why would the media (and those opposed to the action) stop reacting to it?

    this is the 9th Circus Court of Appeals, no court is overturned more

    they don't interpret law, they start from a policy outcome they want and work backwards to find any legal pretense to make it happen, however thin

    the Seattle judge actually said visas can't be denied because it would deprive states of tax revenue, utterly stupid

    the law is very clear that POTUS has the power to deny visas

    What are you talking about? The 9th Circuit (not circus) Court of Appeals denied an emergency stay, and has not made any final ruling related to the ban.

    And the law is very clear that discrimination is not allowed.

    The very definition of picking a single few words to make your point, an invalid one. The judge halt the ban national-wide because it passes the requirements to do so.

    So the argument that this executive order is unconstitutional is that it is a defacto "Muslim ban".

    Those in vigorous support of the executive order vehemently deny this.

    It is interesting, however, how things have flipped. For the last several years, conservatives have railed against Obama and others on the left for reluctance over using the term "Islamic extremists" (with heavy emphasis on Islam). Now, they are getting all hot and bothered when people see this executive order and "call it what it is" -- a ban intended to curtail travel by Muslims from seven countries on the grounds of reducing the risk of terrorism by Muslims within the US.

    sure, he proclaimed the above to be true, but offered little or no evidence for it

    are you claiming we can't deny a visa for any reason? because that's what discrimination is

    He did. Read the link.

    Not for discrimination. I don't know how is discrimination based on said race or place of living or religion is everything.

    Trump claim it's for security. We know what it is about. His own words showed his intention for months and will be used against him.

    It doesn't help that one of his acolytes, Gulliani like the ungraceful idiot that he is flat out stated explcitly that Trump went to high and asked straight up how to implement a 'Muslim ban' legally.

    Yep, and the funny thing is that when he posted on Facebook, he posted one word with it... "Smart". What a clown and buffoon. How embarrassing.

    The man has the worst trait to being a leader of the most powerful entity on the planet...


    He believes everything he reads on the internet.
